An article in Al Jazeera last weekend starts off this way:
Not long ago, a group of young men died in a car accident in Jerusalem. The people of Jerusalem rushed to console the families of the deceased and pray for them, except for one of them. They all refused to pray for him or bury him in their cemetery, because he had sold his house to the Jews.
This scene is the fruit of an awareness that has been sown for nearly 100 years about the ugliness and danger of the transfer of real estate to Jews in Palestine in general, and in Jerusalem in particular.
…In 1930, Sheikh Izz ad-Din al-Qassam founded a secret group called “The Black Hand.” This group’s primary mission was to track down Arab and Jewish land brokers who purchased, transferred, and encouraged land ownership from Arabs to Jews, and target them for assassination.
Sheikh Izz ad-Din al-Qassam was not just a scholar, preacher, or orator. He was a revolutionary leader who built awareness in the face of confrontation, fortified minds, cultivated understanding, verified words through action, and narrated his words with his spirit so that they would rise up among mankind and remain moving without tiring or boredom.
It goes on to discuss a conference in 1935, with Qassam and the Mufti of Jerusalem where they issued a fatwa that said, “Anyone who sells land to the Jews in Palestine, whether directly or through an intermediary, as well as the broker, the mediator in this sale, the facilitator, and the one who assists in it in any way, should not be prayed over or buried in Muslim cemeteries. They should be ostracized, boycotted, treated with contempt, and not be approached, even if they were fathers, sons, brothers, or spouses.”
Al Jazeera, today, is celebrating people who would murder anyone who sells land to a Jew. Maybe its just me, but saying that you won’t sell land to Jews sounds similar to discrimination in the US until the mid-20th century that allowed private associations to refuse to sell property to minority groups.
Funny how the anti-racists are silent when they see a direct analogy to historic US racism but done by Palestinian heroes.
